Just hours before her arrival in Michigan for a fund-raiser in Detroit, Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton again reiterated her dismay over the Flint water crisis.

“There is no excuse for what’s happening in Flint,” she said in a statement. “A city of 99,000 people — a majority of them African-American, 40% in poverty — spent nearly two years drinking and bathing in water that we now know contained dangerous amounts of lead.”

She said while she was relieved that the Michigan Legislature approved more than $9 million to help Flint reconnect to the Detroit water system, “I’m calling on the state of Michigan to finance water purchases from Detroit until safe drinking water is fully restored in Flint.”

Clinton, who will appear at a $300-$2,700 per-person fund-raiser at the Renaissance Center featuring singer Michael Bolton, also called for an expedited review by the Federal Emergency Management Agency and a partnership with the federal government to make necessary repairs to the city’s water infrastructure.

While the state is beginning the process of going door-to-door to make sure residents have water filters and urging residents to get their blood tested for lead levels, Clinton said the federal government should set up that health monitoring.

"In America, no mother should have to worry that the water her children are drinking and bathing in isn’t safe. I believe environmental justice can’t just be a slogan -- it has to be a goal,” she said.
